G CROSS

Introduction

G-CROSS Creative Award is a large-scale creative award for designers and students worldwide initiated and hosted by the British Industrial Design Council, jointly organized by the American Institute of Architects and the School of Design of the University of Southampton in the UK. At present, it has also become one of the most widely spread artistic and creative competitions for college students in Britain. I hope that through this competition, more outstanding young designers will be discovered and discussed, including the development of design, the future planning of design education and the training of student design.

Design for Planet

The climate crisis is the biggest challenge of our lifetime and design has a critical role to play.
We need to re-design nearly every aspect of how we live our lives. Design shapes the world. So designers have huge power, and with power comes responsibility.
We aim to galvanise and support the 1.97 million people working in the UK’s design economy to help address the climate crisis and achieve net zero and beyond, making design regenerative and not extractive.
